Asp.Net MVC Overview

Asp.Net MVC is one of the models provide by Asp.Net to build web applications, this model is based on the MVC (Model View Controller) design pattern. This model focuses in separating the design from the implementation logic, and is aptly applicable where intense testing is required in each of the blocks (design, logic and data access). Since this model separates design and implementation logic, it makes it possible to test each of these blocks individually.


The Asp.Net MVC model also brings with it features like master pages, membership-based authentication etc which were introduced in the Web Forms version of Asp.Net, thus it gives the benefits of UI/Implementation separation along with features which were added to the Web Forms model.

The System.Web.Mvc is the core Namespace which is used to develop Asp.Net applications based on the MVC model.
